Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2282319A2] The present invention is directed to provide a lever switch with a display device that is variably displayable of pictures or texts. A lever 18 is configured by disposing an organic light-emitting device 10 in a manner that it is interposed between an operating unit 1 and an operating unit cover 13 and coupling a shaft 14 to the operating unit 1, and a housing 19 is fitted with a bezel 24 so that the lever 18 protrudes from a hole for tilting 24a of the bezel 24, thereby the lever 18 is tiltably disposed. In the housing 19, a printed circuit board 20 is arranged with a photo-interrupter 23 implemented thereon for detecting a tilting motion of the lever 18.
